The couple moved to Kenya , where in early 1914 they used family money to establish a coffee plantation , hiring African workers, predominantly the Kikuyu tribespeople who lived on the farmlands at the time of their arrival.

"Here at long last one was in a position not to give a damn for all conventions, here was a new kind of freedom which until then one had only found in dreams!" Life in Africa

During her early years in Kenya Karen Blixen met the English big game hunter Denys Finch Hatton , and after her separation she and Finch Hatton developed a close friendship which eventually became a long-term love affair. Finch Hatton used Blixen's farmhouse as a home base between 1926 and 1931, when he wasn't leading one of his clients on safari.
5. He died in the crash of his de Havilland Gipsy Moth biplane in 1931. At the same time, the failure of the coffee plantation, due to the worldwide economic depression and the unsuitability of her farm's soil for coffee growing, forced Blixen to abandon her beloved farm. The family corporation sold the land to a residential developer, and Blixen returned to Denmark , where she lived for the rest of her life.
